What year, features, and location?

It was in Tennessee. Had all the bells and whistles minus the GPS. Unfortunately it sold before I could get to it. God dammit.

Do you think $16,500 is a good price for one with 52k miles? Will spend another 500 bringing it home from 2,000 miles way.

What year? If 2012, that's a fair price... maybe a little above market, but if you're getting the color and all the features you want, it would be worth it.

too late. It sold by the time I got to it. I suare these things have becone popular only since I started looking for one. That silver 2012 with 13k miles I talked about sat at a dealer since March until it was lowered to 19k then sold automatically a few days after I inquiered about it. I suare I have the worst luck.

If you consider it bad luck, it'll only serve to dampen your drive to find one. It's just luck of the draw on timing. Late summer is a good time to bargain in buying a used car, and certain niche cars that aren't in abundance will get bought up a little faster. Keep track of these sales in a log so you can use that as a bargaining chip in the next opportunities.

Thanks that's an excellent idea. I have kept screen shots of these cars and what they have sold for.
